All-Ireland winners James Skehill and Paul Murphy joined Will O'Callaghan to review an opening weekend of the National Hurling League where Kilkenny struck late to beat holders Clare, Tipperary handed a beating to Galway and Cork eased past Wexford.

They also chat about the saga around Cork and Limerick initially not being broadcast, and whether hurling is losing out to football's brave new world.

The power returns for Skehill, then goes and returns again...as he battles the fall-out from last weekend's storm.

Welcome to Wednesday's OTB Breakfast Bite - your bitesize sample of this morning's Off The Ball Breakfast.

Things got started with the Cork GAA C.E.O. Kevin O'Donovan joining Ger Gilroy and Colm Boohig to discuss the fact that Cork's highly-anticipated game against Limerick this weekend will not be televised.

Irish international Anna Caplice was up next to discuss Ireland's Six Nations clash with England on Saturday evening.

And finally, the Irish MMA fighter Will Fleury joined us in studio to discuss his career in the sport and his forthcoming heavyweight title fight on March 8th.

Up first though, we'll hear from the top of this morning's show where the lads debated the Cork vs Limerick confusion.

Up first though, we'll hear what Paddy makes of Dublin's chances this year now that Stephen Cluxton has decided to stay on for another year (at least), before Tommy tries to justify his decision for some inaction on this morning's Power Rankings.
